The Broken Gate is a novel written by Emerson Hough in 1917. The story revolves around the life of a young woman named Mary Braddock, who is forced to leave her home in the East and move to the West with her father. Mary is a strong-willed and independent woman who is determined to make a new life for herself in the rugged and untamed West.As she settles into her new surroundings, Mary meets and falls in love with a handsome cowboy named Jim Galway. However, their relationship is threatened by the arrival of a wealthy and powerful rancher named John Merchant, who also has his eye on Mary.The novel explores themes of love, betrayal, and the struggle for survival in the harsh environment of the American West. It also delves into issues of class and social status, as Mary must navigate the complex relationships between the wealthy landowners and the working-class cowboys.Throughout the novel, Hough paints a vivid picture of the Western landscape, capturing the beauty and brutality of the frontier in stunning detail. The Broken Gate is a timeless classic of Western literature, offering a compelling and unforgettable portrait of life in the Old West.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
